Burn for Bikes!

The St. Anne Catholic School Girl Up Club recently hosted a workout class led by Ms. Jill Thieman at the Charlotte Gymnastics Academy. The event was called ‘Burn for Bikes’ and all funds raised were donated to the Girl Up initiative, SchoolCycle, which aims to help eliminate one of the biggest obstacles keeping girls out of school: distance. The idea behind the initiative is that a bike can help a girl travel quickly and safely to and from school. That way, she can obtain the education she needs to create a better future for herself, her family and her community. Together, the event raised enough to transform the life of one girl in Malawi by providing a bicycle for her. Throughout this giving season, the SAS Girl Up club has raised enough money to provide 28 bicycles to girls in Malawi and will continue to support SchoolCycle.
